From my understanding, this is what will need to be done: 1) Get some sort of tagged/reproducable snapshot of CXF. This can be done one of two ways: a) you can tag (svn cp) the cxf version into your own tags dir, modify the version numbers, and build/deploy a snapshot from there. b) convince a cxf developer to do it from their tree. I could possibly do this late tomorrow if need be. The important thing is to get a version that is known and reproducable. I'd suggest a version with the SVN number in the version number. 2) Tag your own codebase, update version numbers, etc... (since you depend on snapshots, you cannot use the mvn release plugin) Build and deploy to a staging area. (/home/user/public_html/yoko_m2 on people or similar) One note: don't deploy javadocs jars. (or rm them before the vote) With your setup, those jars don't have the required NOTICE/LICENSE/DISCLAIMER in them so they aren't releasable. If you wait another 3 or 4 days, that will be fixable. 3) Call a vote on that here. Wait 72 hours. 4) Call a vote on [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wait at least 72 hours. This was a major holdup last time. Once you call a vote, I'd start asking the Harmony and Geronimo folks that are on the IPMC to get a in vote asap. You need the 3 +1's. Anyway, if you start right now, at a minimum, that's 6 days before a release. More likely: 8-10 days. -- J. Daniel Kulp Principal Engineer IONA P: 781-902-8727 C: 508-380-7194 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
